SECTION 4: FIRST AID MEASURES
[DESCRIPTIONS]
General: In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person.
Inhalation: Remove to fresh air. Keep patient warm and at rest. If breathing is irregular or stopped, give artificial respiration. If unconscious, place in the recovery position and obtain immediate medical attention. Give nothing by mouth.
Eyes: Irrigate copiously with clean fresh water for at least 10 minutes, holding the eyelids apart and seek medical attention.
Skin: Remove contaminated clothing. Wash skin thoroughly with soap and water or use a recognized skin cleanser. Do NOT use solvents or thinners.
Ingestion: If accidentally swallowed, obtain immediate medical attention. Keep at rest. Do NOT induce vomiting.
[MOST IMPORTANT SYMPTOMS AND EFFECTS, BOTH ACUTE AND DELAYED]
Overview: No adverse symptoms or effects anticipated under normal handling conditions. See Section 2 for further details.
Eyes: Causes serious eye irritation.
Skin: Causes skin irritation. May be harmful in contact with skin.
Ingestion: May be harmful if swallowed.
SECTION 5: FIREFIGHTING MEASURES
General Hazard: Toxic fumes may be emitted in a fire situation.
Extinguishing Media: Foam, dry chemical, carbon dioxide, water spray or fog.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Hydrogen cyanide, carbon monoxide and ammonia may be emitted.
Explosion Hazards: Dust suspended in air may create a potentially explosive environment.
Fire Fighting Procedures:
Evacuate area and fight fire upwind a safe distance to avoid hazardous vapors and decomposition products. Fire exposed containers can build up pressure and should be kept cool with water spray if possible. Explosive vapor could form from ruptured containers.
Dike and collect water used to fight fire to prevent environmental damage due to runoff. Foam or dry chemical fire extinguishing systems are preferred to prevent environmental damage from excessive water runoff.
Fire Fighting Equipment: As in any fire, wear self-contained breathing apparatus pressure-demand, MSHA/NIOSH approved or equivalent, and full protective gear.
SECTION 6: ACCIDENTAL RELEASE MEASURES
Small Spill: Contain material. Sweep up spilled material which is contaminated and place it and damaged unusable containers in a container appropriate for non-hazardous chemical waste. Check local, state, and federal regulations for proper disposal.
Large Spill: Contain material. If material is not contaminated with other materials the product may still be viable for use. Sweep up spilled material which is contaminated and place it and damaged unusable containers in a container appropriate for non-hazardous chemical waste. Check local, state, and federal regulations for proper disposal.
Water Spill: Do not contaminate any body of water.
Land Spill: Avoid runoff onto any adjacent land.
Special Protective Equipment: Always wear proper protective equipment when handling this product.
SECTION 7: HANDLING AND STORAGE
Do not get in eyes, on skin, or on clothing. Do not breathe vapors or mists. Keep bag closed. Use only with adequate ventilation. Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking. Remove contaminated clothing and wash before

SECTION 8: EXPOSURE CONTROLS/PERSONAL PROTECTION
Exposure Data: This product contains no ingredients (at greater than 0.1%) with established limits for exposure under OSHA, ACGIH and/or NIOSH.
Carcinogen Data: This product contains no ingredients (at greater than 0.1%) that are suspected of being or known to be a carcinogen under OSHA, NTP or IARC.
[PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT]
Respiratory: If workers are exposed to concentrations above the exposure limit, they must use the appropriate certified respirators.
Eyes and Face: Wear safety eyewear (e.g. safety spectacles/goggles/visors) to protect against the splash of liquids.
Skin: Overalls, which cover the body, arms, and legs, should be worn. Skin should not be exposed. All parts of the body should be washed after contact.
Engineering Controls: Provide adequate ventilation. Where reasonably practicable, this should be achieved by the use of local exhaust ventilation and good general extraction. If these are not sufficient to maintain concentrations of particulates, and any vapor below occupational exposure limits, suitable respiratory protection must be worn.
Other Work Practices: See technical data sheet.
